Irving Layton as a Poet of Protest and Rebel in Canadian Literature
Ars Artium
Irving Layton (1912-) has emerged as one of Canada's major literary talents, not only because of his sizable body of writing, which includes a number of exceptional poems, but also because of a reputation-extending well beyond his reading audience-for controversy, for obstreperous antagonism to those who fail to agree with him, and for keeping himself in the public eye. Reading through Layton's work, one feels the presence of almost two separate writers, the noisy social rebel on the one hand and the serious literary craftsman on the other. Layton is so absorbed with the poet as a public figure and a rebel. The present paper discusses Irving Layton as a Poet of Protest and Rebel in Canadian Literature.

William Wordsworth's 'Preface to Lyrical Ballads (1798)' and Sumitrandan Pant's 'Pallav Pravesh (1926)' are considered to be milestones in English and Hindi literatures respectively. While Wordsworth, in collaboration with Coleridge, broke away from the preceding trends and propounded new theories of poetry and poetic diction, Pant made an in-depth analysis of the poetic tendencies of his established predecessors and argued for similarity between the language of common speech and that of poetry. Both the poets defined the function and purpose of poetry in their own way and received criticism and appreciation from the critics and anthologists. While Wordsworth is remembered as the propounder of 'Romanticism' in World Literature, Pant is considered to be a leading exponent of the 'Hindi Chhayavad', to give new directions to 'Hindi Kavita and Hindi Alochana'. This paper aims at an overview of what necessitated the writing of these relativ...

This book is long overdue. To see why and how it is overdue we must look back a bit at earlier maps of Canadian writing. In 1971, writing Bush Garden, at what he saw as the dawn of Canadian cultural history, Northrop Frye found no Canadian authors of classic proportions. To be classic, a writer had to pull away from the Canadian context to the “centre of literary experience itself.” His guide to Can Lit, he thought, importantly documented Canada‟s social imagination – its rhythms and styles. “Where‟s here,” he said, was a central concern of our writers. Canadians, preoccupied with a soul-chilling vision of nature‟s “vast unconsciousness” tended to write out of a garrison mentality, longing for a peaceful kingdom in harmony with bears and Indians.

Poetry, as with art in any other form, has an existence that is intertwined with the nature the poet, or the artist, lives in. While they can, of course, be defined and studied separately; it is not possible for poetry to exist bereft of nature. This is especially true for NorthEast Indian poetry as one of the major themes of the poetry emerging from this region is the relationship of the different peoples living here with the space they live in. this paper tries to analyze this relationship and its effect on the English poetry emerging from this region. The paper looks into the concepts of deep ecology to try and find a pattern in North East Indian English poetry. Deep ecology has a profound effect in the poetry of this region where one can clearly envisage a shift in the worldview from anthropocentric to biocentric. The paper also looks at the ecotone as present in the poetry of this region and how far the ecotone is productive in building a bridge between poetic concern and ecolo...

Scott, a poet as well as a constitutional lawyer, overlooked another miracle, which if it was not apparent in 1952 when he spoke those words, is becoming clearer and clearer in the 1990s. The miracle of which I speak is the survival, indeed the flourishing, of Native culture in the ...
